Notes
Malt was actually Budvar malt from St. Pat's. Boiled water to remove hardness. Two step decoction mash was employed. Fermented at 48 degrees for 14 days, diacetyl rest at 60 for 1 day, Secondary at 48 degrees for 28 days. Crashed yeast at 34 degrees for one day. Bottled with dextrose to achieve proper co2 volumes. Wonderful beer that everyone likes. Actually cost 27.50 for ingredients. Shipping was extra. Cut back on hops a bit to compensate for hardness of water.
